A number raised to the third power. What is this called???
1 answer:
Answer:
Cubed
Step-by-step explanation:
You can think of it as the volume of a cube where the volume is x to the third power (, let x = side of the cube) to help you remember. This also goes the same for x to the second power (squared) where it can represent the area of a square which is x².
Hope this helps :)

Check the tree diagram of the problem:
The first ball can be either Red or Blue, the second ball can either be Red or Blue.
The branches represent all possible scenarios.
For example, consider the upper branch, the case when both balls are blue:
The first ball is Blue, probability 5/10, the second ball is Blue, probability 4/9 because now there are 4 left blue balls, and 9 balls in total, after we picked the first blue.
The other branches have the same logic.
The question is not completed so we have 2 cases:
"Find the probability that at least 1 ball was red, given that the first ball was red"
here we add the separate probabilities of (R, R) and (R, B)
P(R,R)+P(R,B)=2/9 + 5/18 = 4/18 +5/18= 9/18=0.5
"Find the probability that at least 1 ball was red, given that the first ball was blue"
probability is P(B, R)=5/18=0.28
The first ball can be either Red or Blue, the second ball can either be Red or Blue.
